Some folks posted the links at the comments section for this news. It's actually not new, we've reported this before. The movie's name changed from "Memoirs" to "Remember Me" and what once was a rumor seems to have legs now! So exciting!

Summit Entertainment is presenting four new titles to buyers at Cannes this year including two new Summit productions - a romantic drama starring Twilight sensation Robert Pattinson and a generational love story set in Italy starring Amanda Seyfried.

Pattinson is starring in Remember Me which is shooting this summer in New York while the actor is between Twilight sequels New Moon, which wraps at the end of May, and Eclipse, which starts in August.

Allen Coulter, the award-winning TV director (The Sopranos, Damages) who made his feature debut with Hollywoodland in 2006, is directing the film and Nick Osborne and Trevor Engelson of Underground Films (License To Wed) are producing.

Summit co-chairman and CEO Patrick Wachsberger wouldn’t go into too much detail on the plot but described the film as this generation’s Love Story. (Gozde: Oh my poor little heart and the turmoil it will go through with Little Ashes, New Moon and now "Remember Me". Can't wait!) A female lead is in the process of being cast, while Rachel Getting Married writer Jenny Lumet has finished the latest draft of the screenplay.

Summit will handle domestic distribution on both the film and it will go through its international output partners including E1 in the UK, SND in France and Concorde/TMG in Germany.

New Moon directed by Chris Weitz is set to open in North America on Nov 20, while the third film, Eclipse, to be directed by David Slade, will open on June 30, 2010.

The first film in the series Twilight has now grossed over $380m worldwide. Meanwhile Summit’s Knowing starring Nicolas Cage has just crossed $100m worldwide.

how awesome for him to explore a new character. and how awesome for us to get to see him in another love story :) i do hope though that he takes some time off to rest up and regroup. no matter how young he is, he's gonna need some down time to just be rob.

Oh, dear Lord--filming in NYC? This summer? God, I've got to figure out a way to nonchalantly stalk the filming location(s). Never have I looked forward to a summer in NYC more than I do today!! Thanks for the great news!!

Sophia!I would like ugly actresses too, but i doubt it. I hope they choose a older one with maturity to handle a character who had tragedy in her life, not a 18 years old girl. I just wrote you back in your e-mail acc too.

Thrilled for us, cautiously thrilled for Rob. Hope it's really a role he wants and not some manipulation by Summit. Also wish he could get a little down time - time to relax, play music, hang with his friends, snuggle Patty. Between New Moon, Eclipse, Remember Me and the even more exhausting hype machine, he'll be lucky if he can get a breath. If this is actually the kind of part he would have wanted no matter the circumstances, then it's a good thing with smart timing.

Suz, McAvoy said in an interview that he never kisses with tongue in movies... no french kissing. And, you know, me too, I could watch him kissing all days and nights. I love that kiss in the woods, in Becoming Jane... And the one (ones) in the library, in Atonement...

And, by the way, Anne Hataway (is this right?) confirmed it. She said she loved the fact that he did not stick his tongue in her mouth. French kiss is for someone you love, you, at least, for someone you lust...

He's gona be a busy little bee. Even though I agree another project outside of the Twilight zone will be a good thing for him.

Sophia I agree with you on James McAvoy in Atonement. Pretty awful movie though. And it was a pity he was kissing Kiera Knightly. She needs lessons from Rob on how to succeed with sexy jaw and pout. Her attempt is an epic fail.

Sophia- McAvoy is married so he is probably just being respectful to his wife.

I'm so proud of RP for his emotional depth to be able to do a role like this. But I hope he doesn't get pigeon hole into the romantic lead. I want him to do action roles and be able to be the crazed killer with multiple personalities and do what ever his little heart desires... *SMOOCHES* RP.

Crazy!I just had to say lips, and talking about lipstick.I just can't wait to see rob playing a normal character. No witches, vampires, Dali (who had some strong issues), just a normal guy with tragedy in his life.

O.K., I 'm having a hard time this morning dealing with my Robsessedness.HAHA No, seriously I love the man and I don't even know him. I'm feeling very vulnerable today. WTF it's going to be a LONG day.

I will concentrate on Rob kissing today. Forget McAvoy for awhile. My roommates are planning a night with Rob here, Twilight on tv, and all. Microwaved popcorns... And no BF ~ he is a professor, he will be at work. Gooooood...

Ooops - I posted my last comment from my family blog. So I reposted w/my Robeye instead : ) It looks better here with his other partsHey ladies. Ahh more Rob. And more Rob in a new project. I have everything crossed for this to come through for him. No "scheduling conflicts" this time if it's something he really wants. I'm bracing for the collective groan once they announce the female lead. No pressure on her. And is it just me or is Summit kicking ass??

It is good that he is taking another role as soon as possible, the rest of the Twilight cast are taking other projects too in between, if he doesn´t take anything, it would look for the busyness as if the only role he can play is Edward. I don´t expect this role at this new film to be magnificent, but I do hope he can depart from Edward to the market, it will assure him when the saga is over to get other things. You can´t take breaks when there is heat, or if you do it has to be with a big comeback, but those are hard to get because if the comeback doesn´t work out, the actor is done, so better for Rob to work, do little things in between to keep the opportunities flowing, he is so talented that I imagine him in some years getting a mayor award ;)

I wonder who is going to be the female lead, I hope someone like Kiera Knightly, Ellen Page.. is it too mucho to ask? hahaha

ok, now seriously : since the Little Ashes Movement is growing, getting more powerful and even go global proving we are almighty - why don't WE organize some casting for the lucky actress to play with Rob, and I mean, this should be some amateur one... somebody loving Rob like we do... just a little bit Robobsessed.....

Mech - KK or EP would be great! Can we throw Natalie Portman in the mix? What about someone more unexpected - Scar Jo? We already know how Ryan Reynolds feels about Rob so we she wouldn't have to worry about him getting jealous - well maybe he be jealous of Scarlett...

Just wanted to say a quick hello and check on the latest Rob news.Yay!! So glad to see somthing differnt, love Twilight Saga, but I want to see all sides of Rob.LOL. Literally.Be back later. Have a great day Robsessing ladies.

@TinaI think Gozde CAN everything/anything - the proof is this blog, the fact that we are here, the fact I'm obsessed with this site and writing posts (not only me), and last but not least : Gozde feeds us on superb picks, news and humour ... so she CAN be the one (natural choice)

as to how obsessed a woman can be :I teach and today I was supervising the exam : there were 3 people to sit along with the students, me, my workmate and a guy from some other schooland ... I'm filling in document's data - our names...1. me2. my workmate .... Isabella .....3. I'm asking the guy about his name ... it was ... Edward :))))

seriously, I was grinning mad for 10 mins, especially after yeaterday's (first) reading of The Office

Danni, babe, are they really reliable? Says who? Who are they? Their "about us" part says:"The information on this site is investigative in nature and, at times, admittedly speculative. Pattinson Anonymous thoroughly researches every rumor and provides evidence for opinions made as we make every attempt to provide the most accurate, up-to-date, and verifiable information. "

Goz!Sorry honey, my bad english doesn't help. I almost never can make people understand what i'm try to say. Let me try again: It's seems a reliable source, but i don't know, and after you posted the site "about us" it doss't seems very reliable now, but what they posted there seems real, but i believe you and your english is WAY BETTER than mine!!!!i guess you're going to understand me now!Sorry for the misunderstood!!!

@elainethere is such an amazing number of teachers here, it strucked me on the first day and we've been discussing it earlier...The Office http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4871509/1/The_Officenot that this is my favourite FF but I'm reading what ppl here mention ...

OMFEC~seriously this is all I needed, {throws hand up in the air in frustration} Rob in NYC. Sh*t is going to be CRAZY over here. What if I run into him? dudes, I'll totally invite him over for drinks...to mom's house, DH won't be too thrilled. i put a roofie in his Heine and call you all over. It'll be a jolly good time!!!!

Gozde, I love this news. This made my day. My friends and I are definitely hitting all english pubs and grays papaya in the city. this is too exciting, Rob in NYC.

Brace yourselves girls, it a romance. Get the oxygen tanks ready. they are summiting this film to Cannes. Is that in January or February? So we'll have a movie between NM and Eclipse? Can someone explain the scheduling for these things?

Don't look now but Ted and Lainey both have just broken the news that Rob is getting it on with a lawn chair. It's been picked up by bloggers around the world, so now even if he tries to deny it, everyone will just think he protests too much. Kristen was reportedly so upset that she had a one-night stand with a coffee table and that didn't turn out well at all. Tragic, just tragic.

lol at Diane's post about Ted and Lainey :)Thank you all ladies. You are so funny. I am becoming a regular here. Anyhow, back to the topic. I am super happy that Rob is hitting it while it's hot. It is a smart thing to do but I am concerned that it is another drama/love story. He may end up type cast. Though he seems to be in a good company with great director and an excellent writer for "Remember me" project (by the way I hate the name, "Memoirs" sounds much better). So maybe it will turn out all right for his career. What do you think?
